Leaf Place Card Holders

How we did it:
Materials List
- string
- glue
- cork
- paint brush
- scissors
-
Leaves
First, fold your paper in half vertically, and cut a "U" shape. -
Then accordion fold your paper upwards, and with every fold cut the end with your scissor.
-
Once you are finished folding your paper, open it back up, and cut down the center line.
-
Accordion fold the two pieces of paper up, and glue together to make a leaf shape. You can finesse the shape by creating a mini fan. Tie and glue a piece of string at the bottom of the leaf to create a stem.
-
Stands
Glue one cork to one block. Let it dry. Once dry, paint the cork gold, and the wooden block brown. -
Then glue a paper leaf onto one side of the wooden block.
-
Wire
If you are using wire, ask a grown up assitant to use wire cutters to cut a 5 inch long strand. Poke the wire or paper clip into the cork. Curl one end into a circle. This will be where you place your notecard. -

Write down the names of the guests at your Thanksgiving table and set up the card holders.
